RetroPie is a great gaming front end but the default installation has no Commodore 64! This leaves a BIG hole that needs to be fixed.
In this video I'll show you how to install VICE, the best Commodore 64 emulator, as an optional package in RetroPie. Then we'll get some games and start playing so C64 classics.
Don't forget to check out my project page at Bytes N Bits. You'll find all the links mentioned in the video and the keyboard map so you know what buttons to use.

Nice video. I found the best C64 collection is OneLoad v5. Over 2000 games converted to cart format. All load instant with no trainer or cracking screens, so perfect for RetroPie

@BytesNBits 8 дней назад

Yes. OneLoad is great!

@bigjplay Год назад

What a great video! This was exactly what I needed! Thanks so much!

@BytesNBits Год назад

No problem. Glad it helped.

Man... They even emulated load times. Load ->L turbo :D Hehe. Now way that I will wait for the tapes to load in 2024! Thanks for sharing.

@BytesNBits 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the tip.

@CHQArcade 2 года назад

Cheers man, this looks to have got me sorted. Though I now realise I have .tap files so they seem to also emulate the load times. Off to grab some D64 ones

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

Great! I think there is a turbo tape setting in the emultor if you don't want to simulate the load times.

@CHQArcade 2 года назад

@@BytesNBits Oh nice one, will have to take a look. In the end grabbed some .crt builds that seems to be working but still have the .tap so will give that option a try too. Cheers man

@Grunchy005 7 месяцев назад

I'd like to be able to run the C64 rather than merely load & play games on it. Meaning typing in programs, loading from/saving to d64 images, etc. Is that possible in Retropie?

@BytesNBits 7 месяцев назад

Have a look at this video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7Tswsf4jiz0.html

@Thompalainen 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the guide. What's the best solution to as to as far as possible skip or shorten the load times?

@BytesNBits 6 месяцев назад

I'm looking into this at the moment to try to be able to boot to an emulator in a couple of seconds. It's looking like a very cut down Linux distro but still have to get my head around it. Booting from SSD helps a bit. I haven't tried NVMe.

@GameMedic 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for this video. Very helpful. Is it possible to map esc and space bar to a controller? For my current build I'm not looking to incorporate a keyboard. Thanks

@BytesNBits 8 месяцев назад

I think you can in the settings->input->bindings area. Have a look on RU-vid. Someones bound to have made a tutorial.

@markg5599 2 года назад

Hi I'm using recalbox box on an Arcade cabinet and I'm stuck on the 'press play on tape ' prompt as the games don't autolaunch (or it seems they haven't been set to by the company that I bought it off). I've tried the virtual keyboard that is on the and my physical keyboard that is plugged into the machine via USB but still no joy. What am I missing?

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

Can you get to the VICE menu? Once the emulator is running and you get the Press Play prompt press the F12 key (or one of the controller buttons might be set up as a hotkey). This should take you to the VICE menu screen. There should be a tape control setting in there.

@lestersegelhorst2776 Месяц назад

I want to get might and magic going but it wants a "disk swap" How is this done?

@BytesNBits Месяц назад

Pull up the Vice menu (sorry I forget which button it is - but you'll probably need a keyboard). Then load the second disk into the virtual drive, then return to the game.

@lestersegelhorst2776 Месяц назад

@BytesNBits yeah I can't remember either... In fact that's been a big issue with vice as I can't remember they key mappings from an IBM 101key to c64 keyboards. I did find esc was mapped to "~" not esc. (Perhaps because it's just to the left of "1") It's been about 3 years since I've played around with this and my memory isn't what it used to be.

Hi, I'm new to the channel and I followed your instructions regarding Vice. However I'm having problems in playing my games in retropi as its requesting to choose a an emulator. At the moment it's showing the following emulator vice-xvic-cart. I have put a d64 rom but its not loading. Can you please help. Thanks.

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

Hi. Did you install VICE as the optional package or as the Libretro core lr-vice?

@Astra8676 2 года назад

@@BytesNBits Hi, Happy New Year and thanks for coming back to me. I installed Vice has an optional package and downloaded from the Source.

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

@@Astra8676 Try starting a C64 game. The screen will go black and then a window will pop up before the emulator starts. Press a button on the controller when that appears or you might need to use a keyboard. This will take you into the system settings for the C64. Select the default emulator and choose vice-x64. This should get the games running in the C64 emulator. At the moment I think you're set to use the VIC20 emulator.

Hi how do I play c64 games? I only have SNES controller is this possible? I have a microcade

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

Hi. Does the Microcade run on a Raspberry Pi? I'm not sure what spec it is.

@sweetsourpork111 2 года назад

@@BytesNBits hi thanks for your reply. Yes it does

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

@@sweetsourpork111 Your SNES controller will be fine for the joystick functions but you'll probably need to plug in a keyboard to get the full function from the emulator. If the RPi is inside a case try using a bluetooth or wireless keyboard - there's hopefully a menu option to connect to a bluetooth device otherwise one with a wireless dongle or simply plug in a USB keyboard to get set up. I hope this helps.

Hello, I love what you just showed and you teached me alot from this. But iam making a commodore pet and i really need help how to do that, since iam not a proffesional user using raspberry pi. What is my plan is to do same thing you did. I alredy installed vice but what to do next with roms? I need for it to show the commodore pet screen then i would type commands for games excatly like in commodore pet. Please help me your my only choice right now. I contacted alot of users but they have no idea. Thanks if you reply. Greetings

@BytesNBits Год назад

I haven't looked into it mayself but this might help - commodorepetmini.com/ I think it's just a matter of setting up Vice correctly.

@5t0rZ0 Год назад

@@BytesNBits Thanks but i already know that. I installed GTK3VICE and did everything I had to but now I dont know what to do. I uploaded a rom to pi called c-pet.vsf its basically a commodore pet rom but when I launched my pi and then installed the rom onto it it launched commodore 64 basic v2 instead of commodore pet v4. How can I fix this? I used vice and do i need to use lr-vice? And when I turn my pi on I see commodore 64 then i click on it and there is the rom but it launches the commodore 64 basic 2v. Thanks if you help me!

It gives me an error when I install vice

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

Make sure you do a system update. If you're getting an error loading the pre compiled binary try the build from source option. It will take some time to run but will build a fresh copy for you. I hope this works.

@gabrieledettorre 2 года назад

How can i boot into c64 basic?

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

Hi. RetroPie is designed to run your games programs when you open up an emulator. Most games don't allow you to exit without resetting the machine. If you do that RetroArch will simply restart the game. Your best bet is to install a stand alone Vice emulator. I made a video on this for a while back - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7Tswsf4jiz0.html. I hope this helps.

@BytesNBits 2 года назад

Actually - just had a thought. If you press the Run/Stop key (esc) as soon as the loading screen pops up you can break out of the disk loading sequence. This should drop you into basic. I had a quick play and it seems to sort of work!!
